PROBLEM STATEMENT
My app gives a missing-template error if the user enters nothing into a
provided text_area. But if something is provided, everything works
fine.
I''m still a newbie, so I don''t really understand the automatic
connection between things. Is it a problem that I have
"views/thingee/new.rhtml" and a "create" method in
"controllers/thingee_controller.rb", where . stands for my thingee.
I''m
guessing not, since it''s OK if I give content to the text_area. But
maybe I''m still supposed to follow a convention, and the problem only
crops up with empty content ...???
You can tell by the fact that I write "thingee" that I don''t
really know
what words to use for things, and I''ve not discovered a standard
convention by scanning these forum postings.
APPLICATION SETUP
1. In views/thingees/new.rhtml
<% form_for :foo, :url => {:action => ''create''} do
|form| %>
<%= form.text_area :content, :cols => 60, :rows => 4 %>
<%= text_field_with_auto_complete :tag, :content, { :size => 60},
{:skip_style => false, :tokens => ['' '',
'','', '';'']} %>
<%= submit_tag "Submit" %>
<% end %>
2. In app/controllers/thingees_controller
def create
...
if @rabbit.save
(NEVER GETS HERE)
...
3. In app/db/migrate/001_create_thingees.rb
...
t.column :content, :text, :default => ""
# NB. I''ve also tried no default, and a nil default.
